Curating as a Lifestyle: Maria Popova’s Daily Routine

A deep insightful interview with Maria Popova, the architect behind Brain Pickings. Maria talks about her daily life as well as how she finds content, consumes it, generates new thoughts and ideas. As a professional curator, she cites discipline and regularity as an important factor:

Because the volume of what I need to get done in a day is so enormous, I’m super disciplined and there’s a routine to my day that helps center and move me along.

Even if you are curating only as a small part of your daily job, it’s worth a read to get in the mindset of a professional.
